About us

We have been
organic pioneers
in Italy for
over 20 years.

Our land

WE ARE FARMERS

In 2007, we chose to become farmers. We set up our own agricultural company La Goccia. This proud turning point was the first step towards establishing a totally controlled organic supply chain.

Since then, we have collaborated with our farmers to cultivate the best grains. We select, store and preserve every grain’s natural goodness within our recipes. And we’ve found that team spirit and dedication are also key ingredients.

SUPPLY CHAIN
" Our goal is to connect people with nature, to help them make better food choices for their own health and the health of our planet. "

WE ARE PRODUCERS

We are among the leading producers of plant-based drinks in Italy and Europe, with factories in Badia Polesine (RO) and Viadana (MN). We produce over 100 million liters of our plant-based drinks per year, and we package these under our 4 different lines.

Our family

THE ECOTONE GROUP

Since 2020, Abafoods has been part of the French group Ecotone, Europe’s leading organic food for biodiversity producer.

Ecotone’s mission is to bring change to food production, preserve the richness and biodiversity of soils, and promote a more natural and respectful way of producing food.

 

They accomplish this through choices and actions that put the rhythms of nature first: zero chemical agents, zero intensive cultivation, and a constant commitment to recover ecosystems excessively exploited and impoverished by industrial practices.

 

This is why the link between Ecotone and Abafoods is so natural. Sharing the same values and goals allows us to live as one big family, committed to one great mission: giving nature back to nature.
